A woman convinces a river god to cure her sick son, but the remedy has mixed consequences. A young man must choose whether to be close to his wife's soul or body. And two deaf mutes transcend their physical existence in the garden of dreams. Strange and fantastical, these fairy tales of Béla Balázs (1884-1949), Hungarian writer, film critic, and famous librettist of Bluebeard's Castle, reflect his profound interest in friendship, alienation, and Taoist philosophy. Translated and introduced by Jack Zipes, one of the world's leading authorities on fairy tales, The Cloak of Dreams brings together sixteen of Balázs's unique and haunting stories. Written in 1921, these fairy tales were originally published with twenty images drawn in the Chinese style by painter Mariette Lydis, and this new edition includes a selection of Lydis's brilliant illustrations. Together, the tales and pictures accentuate the motifs and themes that run throughout Balázs's work: wandering protagonists, mysterious woods and mountains, solitude, and magical transformation. His fairy tales express our deepest desires and the hope that, even in the midst of tragedy, we can transcend our difficulties and forge our own destinies. Unusual, wondrous fairy tales that examine the world's cruelties and twists of fate, The Cloak of Dreams will entertain, startle, and intrigue. 410 0$aOddly modern fairy tales. 606 $aTales$zChina 606 $aFairy tales$zChina 615 0$aTales 615 0$aFairy tales 676 $a398.20951 700 $aBalazs$b Bela$f1884-1949.$0382107 701 $aZipes$b Jack$f1937-$0192521 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961741403321 996 $aThe cloak of dreams$94449069 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00732nam0-2200265 --450 001 9911035377703321 005 20251115190057.0 100 $a20251103d1954----kmuy0itay5050 ba 101 0 $afre 102 $aFR 105 $a 001yy 200 1 $aCulture potagere moderne$fpar Andre Belot 210 $aParis$cLibrairie J.B.
